Check out just three of the new posters released for Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part I!
In addition to the posters, we have a ton of new behind-the-scenes pics below too!
Our pals over at SnitchSeeker just posted a bit of their set visit on their site and got to chat with Daniel Radcliffe about the seven Potters scene.
Dan shared, “Basically we filmed it each time in seven different places. That was a bit of a half-baked explanation but it got the point across. That was how it was done, but at the end of the day we were then shown the very primitive version of what it was going to look like eventually.
After 95 takes, you’re crawling up the walls anyway. It was the most gratifying thing to see how good it looked because it really does look great.”

Another Harry Potter book? J.K. Rowling says she could write eight, ninth book
By John Dorian | October 5, 2010 2:50 PM AEST
Just when fans brace themselves to say goodbye to Harry Potter, as the two-part finale will hit the theaters this year and the next, author J.K. Rowling shines a beam of hope for fans as she reveals that she might write another book for the Harry Potter novels.
Talking to Oprah in an interview, Rowling revealed that she could write one or two more book in the seven-novel Harry Potter series, and even if she thinks she is done, she does not close her door to writing a new book.
"I could definitely write an eighth, a ninth book... I think I am done, but you never know," said Rowling.
Rowling was in Oprah's show late last week where she talk about her mother and how her death had inspired her to write the Harry Potter books.
Rowling said: "The books wouldn't be what they are if she hadn't died... I mean, her death is literally on every other page in the 'Harry Potter' books."
"At least half of Harry's journey is to deal with death, what it does to the living, what it means to die, what survives death....If she hadn't died, I don't think it is too strong to say there wouldn't be Harry Potter. The books are what they are because she died."
Rowling has recently founded a medical research facility in memory of her mother, The Anne Rowling Regenerative Neurology Clinic . Whether she will write another book in the Harry Potter series has no definite answers as of now, but as Rowling herself said, "you never know."

University to run Harry Potter course
Durham Times
2:34pm Friday 13th August 2010
DURHAM University is to run a Harry Potter course.
The university will offer a second-year undergraduate module entitled Harry Potter and the Age of Illusion from the next academic year, which begins in October.
The course is the idea of Dr Martin Richardson, head of the education department and director of the education studies degree.
Dr Richardson says study of the social and moral issues raised in the children’s book series has great relevance to today’s society and the course was conceived in response to demand from students.
Writing in the Times Higher Education Supplement, he says: “Whichever side of the fence one stands... Harry Potter is hard to ignore.
“The optional module has had to meet the same rigorous academic standards as any other and has the approval of the external examiner.
“It is only fitting that a university such as Durham responds to new developments in our academic and wider social and cultural environment to develop new modules such as this.
“Surely, higher education must explore issues relevant to today’s society. Some of the universal themes covered in the works of JK Rowling certainly bear analysis, whether in English departments or outside.”
Harry Potter has also been studied at Edinburgh, Yale and Kansas State universities
